It didn’t take long for Damian to get back into the swing of it as he played the BMW PGA Celebrity Pro-AM golf competition at Wentworth Club in Virginia Water, Surrey, United Kingdom today, Wednesday, May 23.  Teeing off at 1:15 pm, Damian returned to the West Course with golf professional “The Great Dane” Thomas Bjorn, along with lead singer and guitarist for the British pop/rock band The Vamps, Bradley Simpson and Italian-British actor Luke Pasqualino.

Damian received some useful golfing tips from Sky Sports presenter Nick Dougherty before he teed off.  Dougherty analyzed his swing as he took his driver out on the range and suggested a few improvements before he headed to the course. You can watch that video here if it’s authorized in your viewing area. And guess who made SkySports FanVan? You can see Damian in this video at 2:46 in.

Svelte Damian can wear a suit like a coat hanger and Axe can wear a hoodie like a dope Bankster. As Billions costume designer Eric Daman has said, “Damian looks like he just walked off a mens catwalk in Italy” so when “Axe does wear a suit, it’s like a punch to the face.”
